Then again, I also like the look of the 61 Imperial, fins, headlight pods, swing-out seats, and oblong steering wheels -- what can I say? I'll need to explore more of Wrights stuff: which is OK, as I may be out there again next year. Alas, all I could find of AMC or Rambler in the Mad city was at their Famous Dave's location http://www.gwensmith.com/weblog/mad05_hubcaps.jpg 'n' ya, I do share your concerns -- there are many -- over the dearth of AMC history being out there (or in here). It's one of the reasons I find myself asking so many questions here and there, as I build up my own knowledge base, and toss what I find on the website. Which reminds me. What exactly was the Dealer Service Training Unit's use? That is, a semi-truck that I assume was sent to dealers' service departments to train the mechanics on the latest tips'n'tricks for a model year. Was this a long running thing, or was it a short-lived programme akin to the Advance Styling Studio? History like this is probably as scarce as the "milk" that Ramblers used to be delivered in. With or without A.M.C. cereal. Cheers, Gwen Smith ______^_____^______ (O|O) =RAMBLER= (O|O) Gwen Smith * gwen@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ------------------- www.gwensmith.com/interests/rambler \-<>---|770|---<>-/
